1 H1945 Woe H5850 to the crown H1348 of pride H7910 of the drunkards H669 of Ephraim, H5034 and to the fading H6731 flower H6643 of his glorious H8597 beauty, H7218 which is on the head H8081 of the fertile H1516 valley H1986 of those who are overcome H3196 with wine!

2 H136 Behold, the Lord H2389 has a mighty H533 and strong one. H2230 Like a storm H1259 of hail, H6986 a destroying H8178 storm, H2230 and like a storm H3524 of mighty H4325 waters H7857 overflowing, H3240 he will cast them down H776 to the earth H3027 with his hand.

3 H5850 The crown H1348 of pride H7910 of the drunkards H669 of Ephraim H7429 will be trodden H7272 under foot.

4 H5034 The fading H6733 flower H6643 of his glorious H8597 beauty, H7218 which is on the head H8081 of the fertile H1516 valley, H1061 shall be like the first-ripe H7019 fig before the summer; H3709 which someone picks H1104 and eats H7200 as soon H7200 as he sees it.

5 H3117 In that day, H3068 Yahweh H6635 of Armies H5850 will become a crown H6643 of glory, H6843 and a diadem H8597 of beauty, H7605 to the residue H5971 of his people;

6 H7307 and a spirit H4941 of justice H3427 to him who sits H4941 in judgment, H1369 and strength H7725 to those who turn H4421 back the battle H8179 at the gate.

7 H428 They H7686 also reel H3196 with wine, H8582 and stagger H7941 with strong drink. H3548 The priest H5030 and the prophet H7686 reel H7941 with strong drink. H1104 They are swallowed up H4480 by H3196 wine. H8582 They stagger H7941 with strong drink. H7686 They err H7203 in vision. H6328 They stumble H6417 in judgment.

8 H7979 For all tables H4390 are completely full H4725 of filthy H6892 vomit H6675 and filthiness.

9 H3384 Whom will he teach H1844 knowledge? H995 To whom will he explain H8052 the message? H1580 Those who are weaned H2461 from the milk, H6267 and drawn H7699 from the breasts?

10 H6673 For it is precept H6673 on precept, H6673 precept H6673 on precept; H6957 line H6957 on line, H6957 line H6957 on line; H2191 here a little, H2191 there a little.

11 H1696 But he will speak H5971 to this nation H3934 with stammering H8193 lips H312 and in another H3956 language;

12 H559 to whom he said, H5117 "This is the resting H4496 place. Give rest H5889 to weary;" H4774 and "This is the refreshing;" H14 yet they would H8085 not hear.

13 H1697 Therefore the word H3068 of Yahweh H6673 will be to them precept H6673 on precept, H6673 precept H6673 on precept; H6957 line H6957 on line, H6957 line H6957 on line; H2191 here a little, H2191 there a little; H3212 that they may go, H3782 fall H268 backward, H7665 be broken, H3369 be snared, H3920 and be taken.

14 H8085 Therefore hear H1697 the word H3068 of Yahweh, H582 you H3944 scoffers, H4910 that rule H582 this people H3389 in Jerusalem:

15 H559 "Because you have said, H3772 ‘We have made H1285 a covenant H4194 with death, H7585 and with Sheol H6213 are we H2374 in agreement. H7857 When the overflowing H7752 scourge H5674 passes through, H935 it won't come H7760 to us; for we have made H3577 lies H4268 our refuge, H5641 and we have hidden H8267 ourselves under falsehood.'"

16 H559 Therefore thus says H136 the Lord H3069 Yahweh, H3245 "Behold, I lay H6726 in Zion H68 for a foundation a stone, H976 a tried H68 stone, H3368 a precious H6438 cornerstone H3245 of a sure H4143 foundation. H539 He who believes H2363 shall not act hastily.

17 H7760 I will make H4941 justice H6957 the measuring line, H6666 and righteousness H4949 the plumb H1259 line. The hail H3261 will sweep away H4268 the refuge H3577 of lies, H4325 and the waters H7857 will overflow H5643 the hiding place.

18 H1285 Your covenant H4194 with death H3722 shall be annulled, H2380 and your agreement H7585 with Sheol H6965 shall not stand. H7857 When the overflowing H7752 scourge H5674 passes through, H4823 then you will be trampled down by it.

19 H1767 As often H5674 as it passes through, H3947 it will seize H1242 you; for morning H1242 by morning H5674 it will pass through, H3117 by day H3915 and by night; H2113 and it will be nothing but terror H995 to understand H8052 the message."

20 H4702 For the bed H7114 is too short H8311 to stretch H4541 out on, and the blanket H6887 is too narrow H3664 to wrap oneself in.

21 H3068 For Yahweh H6965 will rise up H2022 as on Mount H6559 Perazim. H7264 He will be angry H6010 as in the valley H1391 of Gibeon; H6213 that he may do H4639 his work, H2114 his unusual H4639 work, H5647 and bring to pass H5656 his act, H5237 his extraordinary H5656 act.

22 H3887 Now therefore don't be scoffers, H4147 lest your bonds H2388 be made strong; H8085 for I have heard H2782 a decree H3617 of destruction H136 from the Lord, H136 Yahweh H6635 of Armies, H776 on the whole earth.

23 H238 Give ear, H8085 and hear H6963 my voice! H7181 Listen, H8085 and hear H565 my speech!

24 H2790 Does he who plows H2232 to sow H2790 plow H3117 continually? H6605 Does he keep turning H127 the soil H7702 and breaking the clods?

25 H7737 When he has leveled H6440 its surface, H6327 doesn't he plant H7100 the dill, H2236 and scatter H3646 the cumin H7760 seed, and put H2406 in the wheat H7795 in rows, H8184 the barley H5567 in the appointed H3698 place, and the spelt H1367 in its place?

26 H430 For his God H3256 instructs H4941 him in right judgment, H3384 and teaches him.

27 H7100 For the dill H1758 are not threshed H2742 with a sharp instrument, H5699 neither is a cart H212 wheel H5437 turned over H3646 the cumin; H7100 but the dill H2251 is beaten out H4294 with a stick, H3646 and the cumin H7626 with a rod.

28 H3899 Bread H1854 flour must be ground; H5331 so he will not always H156 be threshing H1536 it. Although he drives the wheel H5699 of his threshing cart H2000 over H6571 it, his horses H1854 don't grind it.

29 H3318 This also comes forth H3068 from Yahweh H6635 of Armies, H6381 who is wonderful H6098 in counsel, H1431 and excellent H8454 in wisdom.
